Downloading it in all its 4096^2 glory.

[Aurora Paradox]

Just finished downloading the 4096 ^2 version.   Was the inclusion of the settings.ini file intentional?

[Rga_Noris]

oops... Big negatve.

Thankfully a right click and delete will take care of that.  The model itself is a fine piece of work.

[CommanderDJ]

Just played Into the Lion's Den. Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.

[Raiden]

Just downloaded, the model looks awesome. Is there any (simple) way to get the model in Blue Planet AoA? By editing the mod.ini or anything? I really wanna see A Time for Heroes. That mission's like a showpiece for the Sathanas anyway.

You have to modify the Saths' ships.tbl entry so that it points to this model. Simply create a file named sath-shp.tbm, paste the following text into it:

Code: [Select]

#Ship Classes

$Name: SJ Sathanas
+nocreate
$POF file:              Sathanas.pof

#End
You should place this file into mediavps_3612/data/tables, just as the model should go into mediavps_3612/data/models and the textures into mediavps_3612/data/maps

[Raiden]

Thanks, The E.

[Rga_Noris]

that may not work. NuSath as anmation code on some of it's turrets that the old sath did not, and it's in the table.

[The E]

It will work as a replacement for the old Sath, given that turret names and weapon placements didn't change.

[Rga_Noris]

NuSath turrets are all in the same spot, but the forward flak uses animation code for limiting it's turning. I think he shhhould just be able to copy te .tbm from te SathMod dir and have it be okay.

[Raiden]

You know what, don't worry about it, I'll just sit tight and wait for the mvps like everyone else (I'm not really fond of messing with the tbms. and stuff as I am a n00b). Thanks for the help though.

I've just had a good look round in the model in Their Finest Hour and High Noon, but I think the best mission to show it off is Bearbaiting. You get a lot of dogfighting around it so you can see how pathetically tiny the fighters are. When you're flying through those trenches you are just a bug to be swatted. Really glad the Sathanas has been brought into 2011. It's an iconic vessel.

EDIT: I just realised, is that the new Collossus in the first post? Damn, that looks sleek. Me wants.

[SypheDMar]

This is probably just because it's  test model, but the LOD3 for the 2048 one doesn't exist. Awesome work!

[Rga_Noris]

it never existed in retail, either, but I suppose there is no reason it shouldn't.

[Dragon]

IIRC, if a LOD exisit in a model but not in table, debug will complain.

[The E]

But if neither the new one nor the original had it, there is no cause for complaints. And honestly, the Sath doesn't really need that low a LOD, given the way it is used in missions.

[Kolgena]

Um, I think the Sathanas works fine in BP if the .vp is in the mediavps folder. I would check for sure if I could remember what mission it is found in though; I merely looked at the f3 ship lab, and the new version was there.

[Raiden]

Well I've embarrased myself.

EDIT: Thanks Kolgena, A Time for Heroes is even more awesome.

[Kolgena]

Haha, no worries. Just glad to help.

Yep. There's the SJD Sathanas for that.
